8/10 Very good

Nice but super outdated. Tiny toilet. Small for a child. No where to put things in bathroom when getting ready no black out curtains very bright early in morning. Small fuzzy tv. Had a small fridge which was nice. Water pressure and hot water goes in and out. The location was perfect. Just needs some love.

Beautiful 1883 hotel. Well maintained, rooms are very simple, no microwaves or refrigerators, everything was super clean and beds were comfortable, but not memory foam. Very easily walkable to everything in town. Beautiful view of the lake. Pool is huge. Very nice day without being extravagant. There are a lot of stairs, and it can be a little bit of a walk to the parking lot, easy for some, but others may prefer something a little more convenient.

No in room coffee. No microwave. No complementary breakfast of any kind. Tiny bathroom with no vanity. Too many steps on property. Beautiful setting by lake but not very comfortable. Old and looks it

The stay at the Inn was peaceful and quaint. The staff was very helpful in suggesting places to visit and eat (other than at the Inn, which had nice dining facilities). Heads up though - there isn’t an elevator, so luggage has to be carried up one flight of stairs.
